PRODUCT LENGTH PREDICTION
In this hackathon, the goal is to develop a machine learning model that can predict the length dimension of a product. Product length is crucial for packaging and storing products efficiently in the warehouse. Moreover, in many cases, it is an important attribute that customers use to assess the product size before purchasing. However, measuring the length of a product manually can be time-consuming and error-prone, especially for large catalogs with millions of products.
You will have access to the product title, description, bullet points, product type ID, and product length for 2.2 million products to train and test your submissions. Note that there is some noise in the data.
Task
You are required to build a machine learning model that can predict product length from catalog metadata.
Dataset description
The dataset folder contains the following files:
train.csv: 2249698 x 6
test.csv: 734736 x 5
sample_submission.csv: 734736 x 2
The columns provided in the dataset are as follows:
Column name
Description
PRODUCT_ID Represents a unique identification of a product
TITLE Represents the title of the product
DESCRIPTION Represents the description of the product
BULLET_POINTS Represents the bullet points about the product
PRODUCT_TYPE_ID Represents the product type
PRODUCT_LENGTH Represents the length of the product
Evaluation metric
score = max( 0 , 100*(1-metrics.mean_absolute_percentage_error(actual,predicted)))
